RESUMEN

A 20-year-old male presented with asymptomatic peeling of palmar skin of 1 month duration ( Fig. 1). He gave history of similar episodes since 3 years, all of which occurred during the winter season and subsided without treatment in a period of 2 to 3 months. He also complained of excessive sweating over palms. There was no personal or family history of atopy. Cutaneous examination revealed exfoliation of skin over the volar aspect of the palms and fingers. Soles were spared. Palmar hyperhidrosis was also noted. Onset in adulthood, absence of itching and/ or fluid-filled blisters, and negative KOH mount excluded dyshidrotic eczema, acral peeling skin syndrome, epidermolysis bullosa simplex, and dermatophytid and convened the diagnosis of keratolysis exfoliativa. Keratolysis exfoliativa is characterized by annular erythema with an air-filled blister arising in the center, followed by superficial collarette and lamellar peeling of glabrous palmoplantar skin. Synonyms include dyshidrosis lamellosa sicca and lamellar dyshidrosis. Emollients, urea, and lactic acid may be used; however, treatment is not necessary as the condition is asymptomatic.
